ahhhh! Jehovahs are leaving messages on my phone now!

Ok, so maybe it's not the end of the world (although I'm sure they're well prepared for it, if it was) but it irked me nonetheless.

Then, this morning a solicitor called my CELL PHONE offering me broadband internet access. Freaking Dell. Dont ever give them your real phone number or a valid email address when you buy from them. You will start getting telemarketing calls and quadruple the amount of spam.

I'm going to have to revise my answering machine and voicemail messages...

LMAO He would probabbly use one of his prank call voices like on the Cream EP.

I'd cut him short by saying "IS THIS PRINCE?!", then hear a scream and a dialtone...

I'm okay with it, as long as they have Prince call me personally and play a song or two over the phone!

Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones. (Ecclesiastes 7:9)

no more annoying than those pre-recorded fake friendly announcements i find on our answering machine all the time... "hey, i just thought i'd call and let you know about this exciting special offer... "

personally, i have no issues with the Witnesses. spreading the word is an important part of their religion, and i've never had one be anything but kind when i tell them that i have a different belief system.
